successful pattern to follow, ronald reagan's. on the other hand, you had the debt limit talks in 2011 where president obama in the middle of talks never, until this day, has gotten specific. we don't know if he offered to raise the medicare retirement age. we don't know how much he said he would cut medicare and enact entitlement reform. so he did the opposite. he went into a serious negotiation not as a candidate but as the president and never got specific. it's one of the reasons we never got a big debt limit deal. so i think mitt romney actually is following the reagan pattern. the question is who when it comes to real negotiation with congress will follow through and get it done. i think mitt romney would be stronger at that. the president, if he could have done it, would have done it. >> secretary reish -- >> let me -- with due respect, with due respect to mr. fleischer, the fact is when ronald reagan was running we didn't have the kind of budget deficit we have right now. it's very -- >> that's not the point. >> you cannot

you cannot compare this to ronald reagan. you have to look at really deep, systemic financial crisis around the world that the u.s. has had. and then the recovery is still tepid, but not compared to those. it's much better than a lot of countries have been doing since 2007 and it's better than earlier united states recoveries when you look at unemployment when we've had deep banking crises. that said, nobody is happy with this. we would like to have a path to faster growth going forward. >> ken rogoff. let's get right to ali velshi. i want to ask you a question. under the establishment survey data, we start break out the actual jobs, nonfarm payment, health care, retail, leisure and hospitality. what is the one you look at most closely? >> reporter: in terms at looking at a recovery, business services and professional work because we're not manufacturing as much. manufacturing is important. the other thing you want to lock at is health care. it's been a growing area for the entire recession. we've gained health care jobs. tho
